HAPPY BIRTHDAY CONGRATULATIONS TO PRINCE ADEKUNLE WAHEED ALHASSAN (BANGON MINNA),
Niger State Coordinator, Oodua People’s Congress (OPC)
With deep admiration and a heart full of joy, I celebrate a rare gem, a brother from another mother, and an outstanding symbol of cultural pride and humanitarian excellence — the one and only Prince Adekunle Waheed Alhassan, affectionately known as Bangon Minna.
Today, we do not just mark another year in your life; we celebrate a life that has consistently echoed the values of integrity, courage, compassion, and people-centered leadership. You have remained a *pillar of strength*, not only within the Oodua People’s Congress in Niger State but across communities where your *philanthropic footprint* continues to bring hope to the hopeless and light to dark places.
Your selfless acts through countless community programs, conflict resolution efforts, youth mentorship, and cultural advocacy have touched lives in ways words may never fully capture. You are a *father to many*, a *husband of dignity*, a *brother of loyalty*, and a *leader with vision and purpose*.
“True leadership is not about titles or power, but about service, sacrifice, and the impact we leave in the hearts of others.”
~ Dr. Aiyeku Olufemi Samuel
Indeed, your journey exemplifies this. Your unwavering commitment to justice, peace, cultural heritage, and grassroots development is both admirable and exemplary.
As you mark this special day, I invoke the words of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him):
*“The best of people are those who are most beneficial to others.”* – \[Sahih al-Jami’ 3289]
May *Almighty Allah (SWT)* bless you with:
* Renewed strength and divine wisdom
* Long life in sound health and peace
* Abundant barakah in your home, family, and leadership
* Continuous elevation in all your righteous endeavours
**اللهم بارك له في عمره، ووسع له في رزقه، واجعله من الذين لا خوف عليهم ولا هم يحزنون**
*O Allah, bless him in his age, expand his provision, and make him among those who will have no fear nor sorrow.*
Dear Prince, may your legacy continue to shine as a beacon for the Yoruba community and for Nigeria at large. I stand in brotherhood with you — today and always.
